Residents of Lewisham in south-east London have transformed the empty shell of a property into their own homes after six weeks’ training and five months on site. London & Quadrant Housing Trust and contractor John Laing organised the Phoenix self-build project, enabling residents to do all the carpentry, tiling and decorating for seven homes at Watermill Court.
